I'm switching from Ubuntu 14.04 to 18.04 and noticed that your editor (my favorite!) requires poppler-qt4. Now Ubuntu seems to be reducing Qt4 ans switching as much as possible to Qt5. Which of course makes sense looking at how Qt and KDE are moving forward.
Now I tried to get the deb file working, I assumed this wouldn't and I was correct. Forcing the debian package throws dependency errors and trying to run the application obviously doesn't work since dependencies are missing.
Then I tried compiling. With Qt4 this of course throws a complaint about poppler missing. Then I tried Qt5 which thorws some really weird errors to do with QtGui/QAction, and I can't really figure out why.
I understand that you don't actively maintain this project, but do look at PRs. Sadly, I only have experience with Gtk and not really Qt. Maybe this is a quick and easy fix, maybe not. I really don't know. But I would honestly hate to be forced to look for another LaTeX editor :/
